both houses of michigan's legislature have passed bills that would prohibit employers in michigan from forcing workers to join or support a union as a condition of employment. after wording differences are reconciled, michigan's governor is expected to sign it into law. "one of the arguments for right-to-work is that it is 'friendly' for business, you get extensive business investment." but protestors such as nurses hope to discourage the governor from signing the legislation. "things that we have, such as adaquate staffing, rest between shifts, those kinds of things would be gone if we didn't have collective bargaining." the pending legislation comes as daimler announced it would make a $100 million investment to build heavy-duty trucks and other vehicles at the company's redford facility in suburban detroit.
